First thing I would try is deleting your *.pyc files they often contain stale information which sometimes can cause issues likes this.

If that isn’t the case I would then double check your PROJECT_PATH which I believe is the issue here.

dirname gets you the containing directory. so if that line is in the settings.py it will return /path/to/inner/mysite the one inside the main mysite and since there is not templates directory in your inner mysite it wont work.

what you need to do is this.

PROJECT_PATH = os.path.realpath(os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(__file__)))

Which will return you the outer mysite path when combined with templates it will return you the correct path.

Everything should then work.
